* Shapekey editor now shows ID-box for showing and editing the action assigned here. This should help alleviate the misconceptions arising to #23823, where user tries to load shapekey action into Action Editor (context there is ob-action only).
There are still a few minor update bugs that I still need to fix here (i.e. post keyframing) though. Those shouldn't take too long I think.
* Changing the action used in the Action Editor properly decrements the user counts now. This solves the bug where you could get actions with a high usercount, but not that many actual users.
* Sequence speed effect was functional in theory, but very difficult to actually use.
* Now the effect works as follows:
- "Speed Factor" (formerly "speed fade") controls the current speed of the sequence (can be animated).
- "Use as speed" (formerly "f-curve velocity") is now the default behavior so that the "speed effect" by default changes the "speed" of the sequence.
- "Multiply Speed" (formerly "global speed") is a scale factor that's applied to the calculated frame (can't be animated).
- Without animation "Speed Factor" and "Multiply Speed" work exactly the same (in this case "multiply speed" could perhaps be disabled in ui, but currently there's no easy way to check this).
- If "Use as speed" is not checked the effect simply remaps the current frame to the given "Frame Number" (can be animated).
- "Scale to length" (formerly "f-curve compress y")scales "Frame numbers" from 0.0-1.0 to the length of the target strip to allow easy animation.
* Tooltips added for all values and options.
* Code for frame blending was nowhere to be seen, so I commented the option out from ui.
* This should fix at least bugs #20979 and #21309.
* The cache was reset almost constantly because smoke didn't save the first frame into cache. Although not necessary for smoke, it's vital to pointcache.
* Added info message to smoke cache panel for non saved files.
* Now smoke also only updates with a framestep of 1, so that scrubbing the timeline doesn't mess up the simulation.
* Among other things fixes report #23731.
modified the patch to store the string internally rather then an array of allocated string pointers, less hassle with memory allocation.
changed to use fnmatch, so *.foo is needed (not .foo as with the patch)
- converted 3 options in keying sets to use bl_options like panels & operators
- removed function arguments for new keying sets, better adjust these after to avoid duplicating properties in function arguments (they were not used).
- use preset subclass with funcs for updating the keyconfig
- keyconfig filenames are used for the UI names as with presets (so separation anymore)
- keyconfig's are stored in the preset dir (scripts/cfg dir removed)
- only the active keyconfig script is loaded
- some bugfixes for saving keymaps
- user interactions no longer saves keyconfigs too, I think this needs to be re-worked.
developer note...
multiple keyconfigs at once are not really needed now that they are stored & accessed directly in python.
for now I left it alone but we could consider to remove this capability in the future.
Now reloading the user defaults also unloads/loads addons, resetting the state to the one set in the user preferences.
moved addon functions into bpy.utils
- bpy.utils.addon_enable(name, default_set=True)
- bpy.utils.addon_disable(name, default_set=True)
- bpy.utils.addon_reset_all(name, default_set=True)
the user preference operators now just wrap these.
- operator properties are now converted into python property() class members which bypass the operator 'properties' member.
self.properties.mysetting
... can now be written as ...
self.mysetting
- fix for error reloading rigify
- better error reporting when an addon fails to load
- upload an addon which loads partly but then fails (eg, module loads but class register fails)
- bugfix addon loading, failier to load would leave _bpy_types._register_immediate = False
- added which change on disk are reloaded when enabling.
- bpy.path.module_names() now returns (module_name, module_path) pairs.
while not a bug, being able to cycle over vertex/edge/face modes is useful. added an operator to cycle an array, could be used for cycling the active layer or mesh edit mode.
- use 3 column lists for inherited props, funcs and for references to save on vertical space.
- use the blender version string for the upload path and PDF name.
